Yeah, it's my kink too. How any guy with a pulse wouldn't love them is beyond me. The gang vocals show they don't take themselves seriously-Hazuki even winks, in case you didn't catch it. If you watch them enough, you will get a clear sense that they are enjoying a private joke. Like "Yeah, we're a bunch of cute, fun girls and we are going to rip your face off". Some background: Nemophila were founded in 2019. They are a supergroup composed of: Mary's Blood guitarist Saki ex-Lipstick vocalist Mayu ex-Disqualia guitarist Hazuki (also plays with Lisa-X) ex-Hölderlins bassist Haraguchi-san, and ex-Soramimi drummer Muratatam (also does other projects) Initially, they were just a side project, co-organized Mayu with some help from Saki. They started off posting metal covers of well-known rock, pop and metal songs. Then they began posting originals, starting with “Oiran” th-cam.com/video/eyb2NtPwcxc/w-d-xo.html They tend toward hard and heavy, but also do ballads and some pop covers. After Oiran, another to check is “Raitei”, which means “Thunder” in Japanese, and yes, they bring the thunder: th-cam.com/video/lh-dVLKP314/w-d-xo.html Other than Saki, none of them had previously been with a breakout band, despite having amazing chops. Getting these five together did the trick-they are just exploding. Nemophila’s youtube channel: th-cam.com/channels/voAeGZoC8giXP59NOZABIA.htmlvideos
Well, while Tamu wasn’t technically in a big band, she’s really famous and probably the most in demand session drummer in Japan. She’s played with everyone.
@@powbobs Yes, you are right. She has been tapped several times to do the drumming for the "guitar collection" guitar jam at NAONのYAON, which tells you how the other musicians regard her.
Love Nemophila, they formed late 2019. Nemophila is a blue flower. Singer is Mayu. Guitarists are Saki and Hazuki. Bassist is Haraguchi San. Drummer is Marata Tamu. They are a versatile band. They do covers on fridays, while recording in their studio. Try their song Raitei, awesome banger, great solos. The guitarist really show their styles in solos in it. Mayus vocal is so awesome in it. The last part of song is a headbangers dream. Saki is also guitarist of Mary’s Blood. Hazuki is with Lisa X, was in Disqualia. Mayu was singer In band Lipstick. But yes, both guitarists are incredible. Like Lovebites, two lead guitarists. Life is a great song, it’s from their live stream, show back in august. Beautiful ballad, Mayus vocal is so beautiful in this. The guitars are beautiful. Drummer Tamu had just come back, after months off giving birth, raising newborn, so she holds back emotion the whole song playing drums. Fighter a great song,
Pronounced: nee-mahf-ee-lah I get this pronunciation from one of the drummer’s (Tamu Murata) live streams when she used to do one every week. That particular week she was cooking dinner and chatting with fans. Very cool.
It's the scientific name of a small bright blue flower that's native to the US west coast. Most of the varieties have common names like "baby blue eyes". That's why I had to laugh a little when he said "I should have known from the name", because it is a very metal sounding word, unless you know what it means.
@@zenbastard0 - yes. I find it significant that Nemophila is native to North America (like rock) but very popular in Japan (like rock). Hitachi Seaside Park features it and every spring the place turns blue. (Nemophila flowers also have five petals, like the band with five members.) www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g780841-d1372667-Reviews-Hitachi_Seaside_Park-Hitachinaka_Ibaraki_Prefecture_Kanto.html
@@jamesredman1263 Wow, you weren't kidding the place turning blue! I wonder if the meaning of the name might even go deeper though. Mayu's vocal style strongly reminds me of pre-grunge NorCal skater punk, and NorCal being part of the region where Nemophila grows wild.
Love this band. They have a bright future. They are a new band and they have not released a full album yet ..only singles and covers. There is a lot of good stuff from those to check out until they drop their debut album...I’m very excited for that.
@@TheChampOfMedium Saki is probably the best shredding metal guitarist you've never heard of. Check out her work with her other band, Mary's Blood. For a good sample of her shredding watch their official video for "Marionette. Great reaction btw. You should also check out Nemophila's song "Oiran" later too. Saki basically invited some all stars to get together with her to form Nemophila.
@@TheChampOfMedium you need to check out Saki, perhaps one of the best female guitarist! Give a listen to Mary’s Blood Marionette! You’ll love the solo
@@rickfromtexas4659 Saki is super talented but, we have Miyako and Midori from Lovebites, in my opinion they shred more. But I love more Saki and Hazuki
Now although I am one of Nemophila's biggest fans and you should watch all of their videos, there are a LOT of bands of nearly this quality in Japan, all girls, all awesome, some have come and gone but they keep coming. Aldious should be on everyone's list along with Mary's Blood, Band-Maid, let's throw in LOVEBITES and now Hanabie. They all have the power to make you happier than you were 30 seconds ago. There are many more bands, many many more - if you're lucky Hiawatha G.will be along to share a condensed list...
They like to do covers as well as originals. Iron Maiden (2). Kiss, Helloween, Maximum the Hormone, X-Japan, Babymetal, Nickelback, and the banana song from the Minions movie, and many others. The singer Mayu chooses the songs (except for the Minions song). Saki, the shredder on the right, is likely the best known to Western fans, long time guitarist for the all-women metal band Mary's Blood. If you watch their studio sessions they are obviously having fun.
@@JDsHouseofHobbies Hazuki was not in Destrose, if believed Wikipedia, but Lovebites members Miho and Haruna were in Destrose. Although they don't have played there the same time, because Destrose has had very many members during years.
"Where do they come from?" - well, other bands ;) . Even if they are fresh like morning roses, they are all seasoned "veterans" of the japanese metal scene - Saiki (right/gtr) is the best-knowned female shredder in Japan, Hazuki (left/gtr) comes from Disqualia, Mayu (singing extraordinaire) from Lipstick, Haraguchi-san (bass and laughs) from Hölderlins and last but not least, fusion drummer Tamu comes from ... too many projects to list them here, let's just say she's a highly demanded drummer (and a young mum). They were supposed to be a jam band at first, but soon realised they were on something with that team, so now they have three EP (with a total of 7 to 8 original songs released) and an album at recording state. They're versatile in the metal/hard rock genre, and really really really fun in the behind-the-scenes moments.
*Saki is also best known from Mary's Blood (who are now set to release a new album in September), now disbanded Destrose (she was with them in '09-'10), and one of two guitarists for another side project of hers called Amahiru, performing alongside ex-Dragonforce bassist Frédéric Leclercq.
Nice reaction, please give support to this band. They are awesome. Nemophila is a Japanese metal band from Tokyo. Formed on September 5 in 2019, is a supergroup consisting of some familiar names from the girls’ rock scene. They are lead by guitarist SAKI from Mary’s Blood, Destrose, Amahiru, who recruited former Lipsick vocalists MAYU, guitarist HAZUKI from Disqualia, bassist HARAGUCHI-SAN from HöLDERLINS, and drummer MURATA TAMU from Soramimi. The band went viral with a rehearsal room version of the song 'Oiran' and have also gained further popularity because of their cover versions of songs by artists such as Iron Maiden, Helloween, Maximum the Hormone, Babymetal, Pink, AC/DC, Kiss, Show Ya, The Minions and more. They published two official releases in 2020.
Nice one. This track will be released at the end of the month with all English vocals as part of a CD by JPU Records. Other tracks of theirs: Raitei, Sorai, Life & Numerous covers of songs by Iron Maiden, KISS, Linkin Park & so on. Great stuff to come!
Finally. I knew you'd like them. I haven't read others' comments, but their originals, "Oiran" and "Ratei" are bangers. "Fighter" and "Monsters" are not as hard, but still very good. And I think you'll like a lot of their covers--Iron Maiden, Helloween, Baby Metal and some surprising ones, as well.
And you delivered! I love this band, Band Maid is my first love but NEMOPHILA is my side chick., Stage left guitar player is in a band with the bass player from Dragon Force called Amahiru.
For guitar solo check out nemophila raitei Do check out maximum the hormone for maximum kick 🤣. The drummer - nao is very much influence the girls band drummer including akane from band maid plus she sings & scream too. Also checkout doll$boxx - shout down & also the band unlucky morpheus! Same singer
Nemophila is a band formed in 2019, but actually each of their members is from a different band, so nemophila is like a super band type, and they are a very unique band, each song has different elements, Both guitars are 7 string, and of course 5 string bass，Two guitarists: Saki and hazuki are very famous guitarists in Japan, drummer tamu is one of the best drummers in Japan, she not only plays rock and metal, she is also a very good jazz drummer. next one Please react to 《oiran》or《raitei》🔥🔥🤘🏻🌸
I'm surprised you haven't reacted to them before. Glad you finally did. Just wanted to correct some people on here on how the band was created. Lead singer Mayu had just left the group Lipstick and was looking for a backing band for her solo project. She was school friends with bassist Haraguchi ( ex Holdrens) and they contacted drummer Tamu (ex Sorammi) and asked her if she knew any other people who'd be interested. Tamu then contacted Saki (Mary's Blood) who then also suggested Hazuki ( ex Disqualia) This is directly from a recent interview they did.
If Band-Maid is a hard rock band that veers into metal, Nemophila is a metal band that veers into rock. Both are so uniquely great though. "Oiran" and "Raite" are really your next options. After that is a smattering of originals and covers. I will recommend one that no one else will, because you will like it since you like J-pop as well. They do a cover of "Make You Happy" by Niziu that's hella fun. The singer even does the dance, kinda like Cluppo during "Peace&Love".
Finally got to this band they are monsters. If you want to see real shredding from Saki the one with the killer white Marshall check out her band, Mary’s Blood and the MV for Marionette. You will see why she is so well thought of as a shredder.
You are going to love exploring this groups catalog. They were putting something up every Friday for a while there, keeping all of sane through 2020. They have done several live streams and have an EP coming out on June 25th through JPU Records. Another live stream is scheduled for June 19th. They play every genre of music from covers of Kpop (Make You Happy) all the way to Dissension
NiziU (Make You Happy) is actually J-Pop, and one of the most successful japanese songs last year. This info isn't really a game changer, but anyways, Nemophila's cover of it is pure fun ... lol!
@@fightrashovar4578 Thanks for the correction. They made a Korean version and Japanese version of the song and didn't look them up again. I actually was made aware of them through the Girlfriend cover of the song.
@@ramair3judge ... and thanks for your quick reply. Yes, NiziU is obviously targeting the Koreran audience as well, and they seem to be quite popular there, too!
Niziu is an intersection between Japanese Idol and K-pop. And yes, is more J-pop. It was created by a K-pop producer and its members were selected through two survival programs in Japan. The members are Japanese, but the method of work and music comes from K-pop. They are a big hit in Japan and also work on the Korean market.
Thanks Takeshi! So we approach reality, step by step, a little more with every bit of information; I'm not into K-pop at all, and all I know about J-pop is L i S A ! - well, that's not exactly true; but tbh, pop as a genre is not where I put my focus on, generally ... let alone that J-pop in itself seems to be very diverse and submitted to constant changes. My first question would be: where are the limits of J-pop (Today, I discovered Atarashi Gakkou, and I'm still a bit confused: are they a bunch of heavily successful tiktok influencers? A 4-member dancing company? HipHop artists? Or "just" some J-pop idol girls, redefining the genre somehow .... Time will tell, as I said my focus is elsewhere (rock in all it's specific different flavours, in particular).
Awesome my man you picked a great one here I’m pumped up you got to these girls looking forward to the next one. Also they love to do covers on TH-cam probably worth a look to✌️
Dude I've been waiting for you to react to this one, knew it was gonna be a banger. Your reactions are the best on YT, keep doing what you're doing, making me laugh while simultaneously educating me on why I enjoy the songs I do 😂 love your stuff man
Ohh, I am kind of in shock, Champ😳 You didn't know Nemophila till now? 🤨 This is my #3 fav group (#1 is Band-Maid). This is kind of a side-project of ellite musicians from other bands. They don't have many original songs yet, but all original songs such as Oiran, Raitei, and Life (for their soft side) are really good. They also have many fantastic cover videos at their official site. More Nemophila, please👍😎👍
Can’t really go wrong with any of their songs. Such a great band. It may be time for Sokoninaru - Tenohira De Odoru, if you haven’t seen it already. th-cam.com/video/n7MyoBki9wk/w-d-xo.html
Also take a look at the band that made the biggest impact on Sokoninaru. Ling Tosite Sigure - Telecastic fake show: th-cam.com/video/lqYCMxhgeSU/w-d-xo.html. Fantastic and unique bands with skill and musicality ahead of their time.
Oh I was sooooooo waiting for you to react to Nemophila, I knew you would love them. I'm sure some others have already said this, but they are still pretty new, so only a handful of original songs, but they are all good. This one is easily their "hardest" but really they go hard in all their songs. mayu's vocal abilities are all over the place in their songs, and I mean that in a good way...she can do so much and it all sounds good. And that's not even to mention the covers they've done as well, which yes...are also all good. This is another one of those bands where you're just going to want to react to them again right away, lol, and I wouldn't be upset at all if you did. Either way though, look forward to some more reacts to Nemophila, because you're going to love it, no doubt. Thanks for reacting to them my dood.
Thank you for reacting to my favorite band! Love these ladies and their talent is some of the best in world! They are so beautiful but that is the least of their qualities. They love what they are doing and are very versatile! Their originals are metal but their cover songs range from pop to rock to metal. They can play and sing any genre and make you love it! Recommend Oiran, Raitei and ballad Life, Life is sung to drummer who just had a baby so they are emotional and also Hazui's (guitarist you pointed out as so hot) birthday. This would be a good start for you.
What’s up, Champ?! The drummer is Murata Tamu and she’s a PHENOM. She’s got a metric ton of drum cover videos on TH-cam ranging from Portnoy to Yoshiki from XJapan. AND she’s a new mom (last year) still killing it behind the kit!💪🏻🤘🏻
Lol finally Nemophila, been waiting for this in a long, long time! Oiran and RAITEI should be next. Oh, I think officially you're technically a Hazuki fan haha 😆 Now check out Hanabie - We love sweets 🧁 It's like Nemophila little sisters, but more brutal! 🤘😎🤘 I love flower bands 🌸🎌
Great reaction and yes they do shred. Saki (on right side, also a BIG Babymetal fan - they do a cover of Megitsume) is considered one of the best shredders around and her guitar is from a Japanese company called "Killer", so of course she kills it. Nemophila as others have mentioned is a blue flower with 5 pedals (five members), you'll see blue in some of their videos.
Awesome reactions as always. This group started as sort of like super all star group where each member came from talented groups on their own. Most famous one is one of the guitarists, Saki, plays for Mary's Blood. You gotta do Raitei, Oiran and Life. Rock on 🤘 and peace ✌ bro...
This sort of a super band as all the members come from other established bands. The most notable will be the guitarist Saki, from Mary's Blood. So this will give you a death, power and core metal rock vibe.
Welcome to Nemophila :) They are my favorite beside Band-Maid and Lovebites. Take a look to their covers and their originals. They are awesome. I preordered the mini album ...can't wait for shipment. I listen to them every single day on my way to work. Next Raitei, Oiran and afterwards their cover from Maximum the Hormone ;) And yes, as said before ...take a look at Hanabie as well
They are extremely talented musicians, and she has a nice voice. Unfortunately, scream vocals just are not my thing. I recognize and respect that it takes skill and talent to do them. However, for me personally, listening to scream vocals is like having a Marine Corps DI screaming in my ear which is, little to say, not pleasing for me. As far as the Band, it will be interesting when Mary's Blood goes on tour again and see what Saki does. She remains their lead guitarist and the other guitarist is one her best friends. Good reaction Champ, catch ya next one.
Uncle Davis: Nemophila performs multiple genres and styles. Mayu doesn't always scream. The band is innovative and always evolving. They have quite a large repertoire of original compositions and covers. I would encourage you to check out their channel. Thank you.
@@Russ.Murphy You assumed a couple things. Firstly. that I have not listened to their entire catalog, which I have. My brother is a huge fan of theirs and I checked them out. I like a fair number of their covers but do not care much for their original songs. Secondly, you assumed that I referring to their entire catalogue of music when I mentioned the scream vocals when the comments before "As a Band" was strictly for this particular song. As far as Mayu's over all vocals, she is talented but her standard vocals are too high pitched for my personal preference. And I do not care for the scream vocals she does in this particular song either. Its no knock against her skill but more a statement that, while she is very talented, she is not someone I enjoy listening to. Overall, as a band, they are very talented but I prefer Hazuki in Li-sa-X Band and Saiki in Mary's Blood. All that being said, they do not hit the top 10 for J-Rock / J-Metal bands for me.
They have some great songs and even a live concert you can watch but don't ignore their covers because they are all good. They also do a couple of fun songs Make you happy and The banana song. The guitarist right of screen is from Mary's Blood and that's another great band. She hosts a female only guitar festival every year and is a bit of a celebrity and that's probably why people recognised NEMOPHILA so quickly. Please react to more NEMOPHILA.
Wait they’re friends? If you don’t mind, could you please link me to the source. Both of them are among my fav musicians, with Saki near the top as a guitarist and Kanami being top 3 fav songwriters of all times. I’ve researched extensively esp. on Kanami but never found out that they actually knew each other.
Mayu's voice is harsher than Saiki's, even before her surgery, but Mayu has a higher pitch voice. She reminds me of a very angry kitten looking for a fight on my rooftop. I got the same vibes from this band than from B-M itself on every aspect: creativity, tastiness, fun while playing, genre mixing, versatility, etc. I think they will be legends in a world dominated by pigeons. They have a lot of good covers and a few but equally good original songs. My fav from them is Raitei. You should also check out Hanabie-We Love Sweets. They are a Maximum The Hormone in the making with a lot of fresh and good ideas
nemophia and band-maid change my life dude. You need to react more Nemophila. My recomendations are Raitei or Life or covers like Kurenai by X Japan or Despair Billy by Maximum the hormone
Mayu...mayu...mayu...darn that scream...found my first female screamer from japan M!sa ( story of hope ) then Yuna ( Passcode ) n one more from Telec!de forgot her name ( sorry 🙏🏿) then Mayu...good lord live them all n hope they can take care of their throat...check out Hanabie as well Champ...tq for the reaction
Great reaction! Keep it up..... Nemophila is awesome. Support these girls and keep spreading the word. Please reaction to Nemophila, Life (Live), Mayu's range and rasp is amazing in this song.
We knew you would like them. A little over 2 weeks to go until the release of Oiran - Extended Edition, and it's going to have an English version of this song. Can't wait!!!
This lot always put me in mind (at least with this track) of Filipino rock outfit SLAPSHOCK, and the material on the "Carino Brutal" album.. It's always a delight to hear your refreshingly honest opinions and takes on all this stuff you react to man.. I need to hear more from them, never mind you recommending more! lol
I wont bore you with info every one has filled you in on the band i must be late to the party (uk) Welcome to Nemophila these lady's are on a role formed to support the singer at some live gigs and hit it off big time now poised to take over the world of metal /rock .It wont be long till there pulling fans like BM .There all super nice and interact with fans .7 song (collection of there singles )CD available from JPU records UK online concert 19th of this month and there working hard on a album You wont go wrong with any of there songs .
You called it and didn't even know it...Hazuki-san, the first solo-ist...huge Children of Bodom fan....lol And Saki-san...is Saki-san....if you've done any Mary's Blood you already know who she is...;) Mayu-san, her singing is in its own class... If you dive into their discog, there's al most nothing she can't sing...🤘💪 In that sense she reminds me of NANA that fronts Fate Gear most of the time... but their voices are completely different...and they both have tthat ability... I love it. And they have fun doing it too! Oddly I followed all of them separately before they got together with the exception of Haraguchi-san (bs), which I am now! Found them originally via Tamu-san (dr)...used to watch her streams like someone else below...😊🤘
Just found these ladies days ago. Omg so good. You should check out Trident. I would classify them as Korean punk rock. Gives me that old punk rock days vibes from the early 2000s.
Hey Champ. This vocalist has a sound that reminds me of someone else I discovered recently. Skye from Sumo Cyco. Not an all female band, just the vocalist, but some very cool stuff. For a first song I recommend No Surrender or Danger. Great react vids dude! Thanks
You ask, where these girls been? at least their guitarist Saki has been shedding for a long time with her main band, Mary's Blood: th-cam.com/video/p6ipfYbJgXQ/w-d-xo.html and other projects like Shred Racers: th-cam.com/video/GfMf9FszjAU/w-d-xo.html & th-cam.com/video/YL1glLgYW8s/w-d-xo.html
Bodom yes, also like Manso screech or sometimes Brink - and Champ, besides the occasional sprinkled girly J-rock🙄between drums and guitars they are a killer "Metal" band! Megadeth meets All That Remains 🧠🔥
I love that no matter who you are keying in on, you are gonna see a woman being absolutely beastly with her instrument. No one in this band is just along for the ride as any of then could be the standout in a band.
Great reaction as usual! P.S., Poppy just dropped a 5-song EP on her TH-cam channel with her own genre-bending. The song "Breeders," especially, is...an experience. EDIT: Whoops, got my song titles mixed up. "Breeders" is the hooky one, but it's "Say Cheese" that makes you go "WTF JUST HAPPENED?!"
In the studio, they're so chill. This was a tiny bit screamy for me. - But lots of therir other songs are right up my street. 雷霆 -Raitei is really good. They also cover a few old metal classics, such as Aces High, which, NGL I prefer over the original. Another great Japanese band knocks spots of their western counterparts... and they all seem so humble too. - These ladies ROCK.
You don’t see it too much in this video. But these girls are having so much fun when they play. Watch Oiran just to see Haraguchi-San (Bass) either laughing or really trying not to through the entire song. Awesome Band, my Favourite at the moment and awesome reaction. Maybe check out Hanabie - We love Sweets as well. More girls that rock.
Ok, discovered your channel due to me loving NEMOPHILA, and I have to say, I really like how you edit your video, your voice and the kinky remarks. Nicely done, so subbed and liked. Oh wait... you also do some BTS... unsubbed... (joking, while I don't like them, I totally respect your work and choices, and honnestly it's very cool that you go out of your own musical garden, music is a journey with a lot of diversity) Yeah her vocals is what got me into that band. She nailed an Iron Maiden cover (which honnestly I never thought could happen, me beeing a huge fan of Maiden and of the vocals of Bruce Dickinson) Now if you are after some other Japanese hard rock band (all girls), there is a one that is a little less known than the ones you covered, but yet quite talented. BRIDEAR While their original core has changed a lot (only the guitar bass Haru, and the vocalist Kimi, are original members from 2011), they kept talent, while adapting to what happened. Their latest MV (and song) Bloody Bride is quite nice th-cam.com/video/CN3KDIBdosQ/w-d-xo.html If you do them in future, just never ever use one of their live recording, they are pretty bad as far as sound goes, and does not serve them well. But seeing those girls live is something (saw them twice) Anyway, stay safe and keep on the great job, Greetings from Switzerland.
All of their originals are worthy of reactions. Some of their covers too. Raitei or Oiran would be my choices for a follow up from them. And yes, like many have said, Hanabie - We Love Sweets is another awesome one for a reaction.
_Life_ is my first fav, (you'll love it's power! No kidding!) along with _Sorai,_ _Orain,_ _Ratei,_ and _Kurenai_ are all cracking songs too, as their Baby Metal cover _Megakitsune._ Nemophilia rarely fail to impress, they are a good counterpart to Band-Maid, albeit with a smattering of emotive thrash vocals when & where apt - like Axle's wailing screams of GnR of old. But... one of there Iron Maiden covers seemed to suffer a levels mishap IMHO - likely first song of the day in the studio after another band had the monitor/mixing desk/eq set differently- can't be perfect all the time, and it's them rehearsing/jamming it perhaps?
I encourage you to listen to more of their originals ("Raitei" or "Life") AND covers(Iron Maiden, Kiss, Linkin park, ACDC) songs ;) Mayu (the singer) is the new voice of J-metal !
This is actually Nemophila's heaviest song; most of their other songs are more old school heavy metal. If you want to hear something heavier and more modern try 花冷え。(Hanabie)「我甘党」(I love sweets)
Oh, by the way, the drummer in the link is Tamu Murata, the drummer you just watched with Nemophila and obviously the guitarist in the middel is Saki....my guitar goddess.
Everyone has mentioned all the members on this band. Most famous is Saki (current member of Mary's Blood). Drummer is Tamu Murata - she started as a fusion drummer. She can play almost any genre and is one of the top females drummers in Japan. Also, she recently had a baby late last year. She has her own YT channel with combined view of over 45 million. She does a lot of covers from Jazz, Pop to Metal (channel name is in Japanese). Here is her covering OST Theme of Lupin III (8 million views) >> th-cam.com/video/_O9QPGxQDI8/w-d-xo.html (big band Jazz)
The first thought at the beginning was: "Woah sounds like Arch Enemy!" After the second and third song, I fell in love with Nemophila. My personal favorite is "Raitei" th-cam.com/video/lh-dVLKP314/w-d-xo.html
I saw this thumbnail and thought... Oh, he's gonna love this! :-)
100% NEMOPHILA is really getting noticed now. 🤘
The world of NEMOPHILA is a beautiful world.
Yeah, it's my kink too. How any guy with a pulse wouldn't love them is beyond me. The gang vocals show they don't take themselves seriously-Hazuki even winks, in case you didn't catch it. If you watch them enough, you will get a clear sense that they are enjoying a private joke. Like "Yeah, we're a bunch of cute, fun girls and we are going to rip your face off". Some background:
Nemophila were founded in 2019. They are a supergroup composed of:
Mary's Blood guitarist Saki
ex-Lipstick vocalist Mayu
ex-Disqualia guitarist Hazuki (also plays with Lisa-X)
ex-Hölderlins bassist Haraguchi-san, and
ex-Soramimi drummer Muratatam (also does other projects)
Initially, they were just a side project, co-organized Mayu with some help from Saki. They started off posting metal covers of well-known rock, pop and metal songs. Then they began posting originals, starting with “Oiran” th-cam.com/video/eyb2NtPwcxc/w-d-xo.html They tend toward hard and heavy, but also do ballads and some pop covers.
After Oiran, another to check is “Raitei”, which means “Thunder” in Japanese, and yes, they bring the thunder: th-cam.com/video/lh-dVLKP314/w-d-xo.html
Other than Saki, none of them had previously been with a breakout band, despite having amazing chops. Getting these five together did the trick-they are just exploding.
Nemophila’s youtube channel: th-cam.com/channels/voAeGZoC8giXP59NOZABIA.htmlvideos
Well, while Tamu wasn’t technically in a big band, she’s really famous and probably the most in demand session drummer in Japan.
She’s played with everyone.
@@powbobs Yes, you are right. She has been tapped several times to do the drumming for the "guitar collection" guitar jam at NAONのYAON, which tells you how the other musicians regard her.
You can't go wrong with these girls, originals or covers. Raitei MV was the first time I heard them, solos are incredible.
Love Nemophila, they formed late 2019. Nemophila is a blue flower. Singer is Mayu. Guitarists are Saki and Hazuki. Bassist is Haraguchi San. Drummer is Marata Tamu. They are a versatile band. They do covers on fridays, while recording in their studio. Try their song Raitei, awesome banger, great solos. The guitarist really show their styles in solos in it. Mayus vocal is so awesome in it. The last part of song is a headbangers dream. Saki is also guitarist of Mary’s Blood. Hazuki is with Lisa X, was in Disqualia. Mayu was singer In band Lipstick. But yes, both guitarists are incredible. Like Lovebites, two lead guitarists.
Life is a great song, it’s from their live stream, show back in august. Beautiful ballad, Mayus vocal is so beautiful in this. The guitars are beautiful. Drummer Tamu had just come back, after months off giving birth, raising newborn, so she holds back emotion the whole song playing drums. Fighter a great song,
been waiting on this one. need to check out hanabie as well
Yessss Hanabi plzzzz 😗🤗😀
Yes
I 4th this suggestion, I'm addicted to flower bands, they're blooming! 🤘🌸🤘
I can't wait for Hanabie to blow up more.
@@muttenmagroo do you have a song name for Hanabi u recommend?
Pronounced: nee-mahf-ee-lah
I get this pronunciation from one of the drummer’s (Tamu Murata) live streams when she used to do one every week. That particular week she was cooking dinner and chatting with fans. Very cool.
It's the scientific name of a small bright blue flower that's native to the US west coast. Most of the varieties have common names like "baby blue eyes". That's why I had to laugh a little when he said "I should have known from the name", because it is a very metal sounding word, unless you know what it means.
@@zenbastard0 - yes.
I find it significant that Nemophila is native to North America (like rock) but very popular in Japan (like rock).
Hitachi Seaside Park features it and every spring the place turns blue.
(Nemophila flowers also have five petals, like the band with five members.)

@@jamesredman1263 Wow, you weren't kidding the place turning blue! I wonder if the meaning of the name might even go deeper though. Mayu's vocal style strongly reminds me of pre-grunge NorCal skater punk, and NorCal being part of the region where Nemophila grows wild.
Love this band. They have a bright future. They are a new band and they have not released a full album yet ..only singles and covers. There is a lot of good stuff from those to check out until they drop their debut album...I’m very excited for that.
On the 25th, Oiran EP will drop officially. JPU Records is the distributor.
In case you haven’t noticed, the guitarist on the right is Saki of Mary’s Blood
I didn't notice... but tbf I don't know who that is.
@@TheChampOfMedium Saki is probably the best shredding metal guitarist you've never heard of. Check out her work with her other band, Mary's Blood. For a good sample of her shredding watch their official video for "Marionette. Great reaction btw. You should also check out Nemophila's song "Oiran" later too. Saki basically invited some all stars to get together with her to form Nemophila.
@@TheChampOfMedium you need to check out Saki, perhaps one of the best female guitarist! Give a listen to Mary’s Blood Marionette! You’ll love the solo
@@rickfromtexas4659 Saki is super talented but, we have Miyako and Midori from Lovebites, in my opinion they shred more. But I love more Saki and Hazuki
Saki is a never stop working girl, so much talented, respect to this Lady and this band
I was not sure if you've ever reacted to them, even looked on past patreon posts. Now I know you haven't and this is awesome! Check Raitei
Now although I am one of Nemophila's biggest fans and you should watch all of their videos, there are a LOT of bands of nearly this quality in Japan, all girls, all awesome, some have come and gone but they keep coming. Aldious should be on everyone's list along with Mary's Blood, Band-Maid, let's throw in LOVEBITES and now Hanabie. They all have the power to make you happier than you were 30 seconds ago. There are many more bands, many many more - if you're lucky Hiawatha G.will be along to share a condensed list...
They like to do covers as well as originals. Iron Maiden (2). Kiss, Helloween, Maximum the Hormone, X-Japan, Babymetal, Nickelback, and the banana song from the Minions movie, and many others. The singer Mayu chooses the songs (except for the Minions song). Saki, the shredder on the right, is likely the best known to Western fans, long time guitarist for the all-women metal band Mary's Blood. If you watch their studio sessions they are obviously having fun.
And, Saki was in Destrose as was Hazuki (I think) and Hazuki was/is in Disqualia. There's a LOT of talent and history in this band.
@@JDsHouseofHobbies Hazuki was not in Destrose, if believed Wikipedia, but Lovebites members Miho and Haruna were in Destrose. Although they don't have played there the same time, because Destrose has had very many members during years.
"Where do they come from?" - well, other bands ;) . Even if they are fresh like morning roses, they are all seasoned "veterans" of the japanese metal scene - Saiki (right/gtr) is the best-knowned female shredder in Japan, Hazuki (left/gtr) comes from Disqualia, Mayu (singing extraordinaire) from Lipstick, Haraguchi-san (bass and laughs) from Hölderlins and last but not least, fusion drummer Tamu comes from ... too many projects to list them here, let's just say she's a highly demanded drummer (and a young mum). They were supposed to be a jam band at first, but soon realised they were on something with that team, so now they have three EP (with a total of 7 to 8 original songs released) and an album at recording state. They're versatile in the metal/hard rock genre, and really really really fun in the behind-the-scenes moments.
Life will sucker punch you right in the feels...even if you don't know the story behind the live performance.
@@Ephem13
As a 6’3” 230l lb long time bar security worker I freely admit to crying like a baby watching ‘Life’ live.
Song is mostly sung and screamed in English.
*Saki is also best known from Mary's Blood (who are now set to release a new album in September), now disbanded Destrose (she was with them in '09-'10), and one of two guitarists for another side project of hers called Amahiru, performing alongside ex-Dragonforce bassist Frédéric Leclercq.
😂....told you those girls would be your jam!! They're just brilliant. I think you'll dig their whole discography. Go for it man.
Nice reaction, please give support to this band. They are awesome.
Nemophila is a Japanese metal band from Tokyo. Formed on September 5 in 2019, is a supergroup consisting of some familiar names from the girls’ rock scene. They are lead by guitarist SAKI from Mary’s Blood, Destrose, Amahiru, who recruited former Lipsick vocalists MAYU, guitarist HAZUKI from Disqualia, bassist HARAGUCHI-SAN from HöLDERLINS, and drummer MURATA TAMU from Soramimi. The band went viral with a rehearsal room version of the song 'Oiran' and have also gained further popularity because of their cover versions of songs by artists such as Iron Maiden, Helloween, Maximum the Hormone, Babymetal, Pink, AC/DC, Kiss, Show Ya, The Minions and more. They published two official releases in 2020.
Nice one. This track will be released at the end of the month with all English vocals as part of a CD by JPU Records. Other tracks of theirs: Raitei, Sorai, Life & Numerous covers of songs by Iron Maiden, KISS, Linkin Park & so on. Great stuff to come!
Finally. I knew you'd like them. I haven't read others' comments, but their originals, "Oiran" and "Ratei" are bangers. "Fighter" and "Monsters" are not as hard, but still very good. And I think you'll like a lot of their covers--Iron Maiden, Helloween, Baby Metal and some surprising ones, as well.
And you delivered! I love this band, Band Maid is my first love but NEMOPHILA is my side chick., Stage left guitar player is in a band with the bass player from Dragon Force called Amahiru.
For guitar solo check out nemophila raitei
Do check out maximum the hormone for maximum kick 🤣. The drummer - nao is very much influence the girls band drummer including akane from band maid plus she sings & scream too. Also checkout doll$boxx - shout down & also the band unlucky morpheus! Same singer
Love how your just churning out these videos left and right! You got to check out Raitei from Nemophila next.
Nemophila is a band formed in 2019, but actually each of their members is from a different band, so nemophila is like a super band type, and they are a very unique band, each song has different elements, Both guitars are 7 string, and of course 5 string bass，Two guitarists: Saki and hazuki are very famous guitarists in Japan, drummer tamu is one of the best drummers in Japan, she not only plays rock and metal, she is also a very good jazz drummer. next one Please react to 《oiran》or《raitei》🔥🔥🤘🏻🌸
I'm surprised you haven't reacted to them before. Glad you finally did. Just wanted to correct some people on here on how the band was created. Lead singer Mayu had just left the group Lipstick and was looking for a backing band for her solo project. She was school friends with bassist Haraguchi ( ex Holdrens) and they contacted drummer Tamu (ex Sorammi) and asked her if she knew any other people who'd be interested. Tamu then contacted Saki (Mary's Blood) who then also suggested Hazuki ( ex Disqualia) This is directly from a recent interview they did.
If Band-Maid is a hard rock band that veers into metal, Nemophila is a metal band that veers into rock. Both are so uniquely great though. "Oiran" and "Raite" are really your next options.
After that is a smattering of originals and covers. I will recommend one that no one else will, because you will like it since you like J-pop as well. They do a cover of "Make You Happy" by Niziu that's hella fun. The singer even does the dance, kinda like Cluppo during "Peace&Love".
I also recommended it as well as the banana song so fingers crossed.
Ha, Make You Happy is a fun cover song indeed. One of my favorites cover by them. And of course Banana Song 😁
When you said I want to see if they're shredder's, I want to see a solo I broke out in uncontrollable laughter.
Finally got to this band they are monsters. If you want to see real shredding from Saki the one with the killer white Marshall check out her band, Mary’s Blood and the MV for Marionette. You will see why she is so well thought of as a shredder.
You are going to love exploring this groups catalog. They were putting something up every Friday for a while there, keeping all of sane through 2020. They have done several live streams and have an EP coming out on June 25th through JPU Records. Another live stream is scheduled for June 19th. They play every genre of music from covers of Kpop (Make You Happy) all the way to Dissension
NiziU (Make You Happy) is actually J-Pop, and one of the most successful japanese songs last year. This info isn't really a game changer, but anyways, Nemophila's cover of it is pure fun ... lol!
@@fightrashovar4578 Thanks for the correction. They made a Korean version and Japanese version of the song and didn't look them up again. I actually was made aware of them through the Girlfriend cover of the song.
@@ramair3judge ... and thanks for your quick reply. Yes, NiziU is obviously targeting the Koreran audience as well, and they seem to be quite popular there, too!
Niziu is an intersection between Japanese Idol and K-pop. And yes, is more J-pop.
It was created by a K-pop producer and its members were selected through two survival programs in Japan.
The members are Japanese, but the method of work and music comes from K-pop. They are a big hit in Japan and also work on the Korean market.
Thanks Takeshi! So we approach reality, step by step, a little more with every bit of information; I'm not into K-pop at all, and all I know about J-pop is L i S A ! - well, that's not exactly true; but tbh, pop as a genre is not where I put my focus on, generally ... let alone that J-pop in itself seems to be very diverse and submitted to constant changes. My first question would be: where are the limits of J-pop (Today, I discovered Atarashi Gakkou, and I'm still a bit confused: are they a bunch of heavily successful tiktok influencers? A 4-member dancing company? HipHop artists? Or "just" some J-pop idol girls, redefining the genre somehow .... Time will tell, as I said my focus is elsewhere (rock in all it's specific different flavours, in particular).
Check out Asterism's Hal Ca! To me she is my most favorite shredder who is also a japanese female under 20! Their song Dawn is my most favorite!👍😉❤
Rising Moon as well. Gotta love that 7 string Yamaha Bass as well.
YESSSSSSSS, she fucking NUTS!!!!!
Awesome my man you picked a great one here I’m pumped up you got to these girls looking forward to the next one. Also they love to do covers on TH-cam probably worth a look to✌️
Life. Check out "Life" from them.
The singer is badass
Dude I've been waiting for you to react to this one, knew it was gonna be a banger. Your reactions are the best on YT, keep doing what you're doing, making me laugh while simultaneously educating me on why I enjoy the songs I do 😂 love your stuff man
Ohh, I am kind of in shock, Champ😳 You didn't know Nemophila till now? 🤨
This is my #3 fav group (#1 is Band-Maid). This is kind of a side-project of ellite musicians from other bands. They don't have many original songs yet, but all original songs such as Oiran, Raitei, and Life (for their soft side) are really good. They also have many fantastic cover videos at their official site. More Nemophila, please👍😎👍
Can’t really go wrong with any of their songs. Such a great band. It may be time for Sokoninaru - Tenohira De Odoru, if you haven’t seen it already.
th-cam.com/video/n7MyoBki9wk/w-d-xo.html
Also take a look at the band that made the biggest impact on Sokoninaru. Ling Tosite Sigure - Telecastic fake show: th-cam.com/video/lqYCMxhgeSU/w-d-xo.html. Fantastic and unique bands with skill and musicality ahead of their time.
Oh I was sooooooo waiting for you to react to Nemophila, I knew you would love them. I'm sure some others have already said this, but they are still pretty new, so only a handful of original songs, but they are all good. This one is easily their "hardest" but really they go hard in all their songs. mayu's vocal abilities are all over the place in their songs, and I mean that in a good way...she can do so much and it all sounds good. And that's not even to mention the covers they've done as well, which yes...are also all good. This is another one of those bands where you're just going to want to react to them again right away, lol, and I wouldn't be upset at all if you did. Either way though, look forward to some more reacts to Nemophila, because you're going to love it, no doubt. Thanks for reacting to them my dood.
NEMOPHILA has shot straight to the top of my play list. 🌸✨🌠
I dont even have Words on how i am i Love with her Voice.
Thank you for reacting to my favorite band! Love these ladies and their talent is some of the best in world! They are so beautiful but that is the least of their qualities. They love what they are doing and are very versatile! Their originals are metal but their cover songs range from pop to rock to metal. They can play and sing any genre and make you love it! Recommend Oiran, Raitei and ballad Life, Life is sung to drummer who just had a baby so they are emotional and also Hazui's (guitarist you pointed out as so hot) birthday. This would be a good start for you.
NEMOPHILA is really starting to get noticed now.
What’s up, Champ?! The drummer is Murata Tamu and she’s a PHENOM. She’s got a metric ton of drum cover videos on TH-cam ranging from Portnoy to Yoshiki from XJapan. AND she’s a new mom (last year) still killing it behind the kit!💪🏻🤘🏻
Bro, next song Raitei....the best Metal sound and solo's I ever heard.... :)
Lol finally Nemophila, been waiting for this in a long, long time! Oiran and RAITEI should be next. Oh, I think officially you're technically a Hazuki fan haha 😆
Now check out Hanabie - We love sweets 🧁
It's like Nemophila little sisters, but more brutal! 🤘😎🤘 I love flower bands 🌸🎌
Band-Maid is the best hard rock band on the planet. Nemophila is the best metal band on the planet.
🤙🏼
The following also applies:
Band-Maid = The funniest hard rock band in the world 🎸🎎
Nemophila = The funniest metal band in the world 🤘 🎎
and Lovebites for powermetal ;)
Is it too soon to add Hanabie for metalcore?
Lovebites for metal.
nemophila realy know how to mix it up its what makes them so good love this band they are just awsome
Great reaction and yes they do shred. Saki (on right side, also a BIG Babymetal fan - they do a cover of Megitsume) is considered one of the best shredders around and her guitar is from a Japanese company called "Killer", so of course she kills it. Nemophila as others have mentioned is a blue flower with 5 pedals (five members), you'll see blue in some of their videos.
Hi, Champ!!! I knew you were gonna love this!😁😁😁
The girl you pointed out is Hazuki, and the other guitarist is Saki, both extreme shredders!!
Awesome reactions as always. This group started as sort of like super all star group where each member came from talented groups on their own. Most famous one is one of the guitarists, Saki, plays for Mary's Blood. You gotta do Raitei, Oiran and Life. Rock on 🤘 and peace ✌ bro...
Finally... Tryout their song Fighter for some nice blend of new and old rock styles with a bit of j-rock.
This sort of a super band as all the members come from other established bands. The most notable will be the guitarist Saki, from Mary's Blood.
So this will give you a death, power and core metal rock vibe.
Hot girls playing metal...and playing it damn well !!! 🤘❤❤🤘
AT LAST MAN ... after all the begging.👍
i love this band...Simply love these ladies...
Welcome to Nemophila :) They are my favorite beside Band-Maid and Lovebites. Take a look to their covers and their originals. They are awesome. I preordered the mini album ...can't wait for shipment. I listen to them every single day on my way to work.
Next Raitei, Oiran and afterwards their cover from Maximum the Hormone ;)
And yes, as said before ...take a look at Hanabie as well
They are extremely talented musicians, and she has a nice voice. Unfortunately, scream vocals just are not my thing. I recognize and respect that it takes skill and talent to do them. However, for me personally, listening to scream vocals is like having a Marine Corps DI screaming in my ear which is, little to say, not pleasing for me. As far as the Band, it will be interesting when Mary's Blood goes on tour again and see what Saki does. She remains their lead guitarist and the other guitarist is one her best friends. Good reaction Champ, catch ya next one.
The older songs by them are mostly rock instead of metal.
Uncle Davis: Nemophila performs multiple genres and styles. Mayu doesn't always scream. The band is innovative and always evolving. They have quite a large repertoire of original compositions and covers. I would encourage you to check out their channel. Thank you.
@@Russ.Murphy You assumed a couple things. Firstly. that I have not listened to their entire catalog, which I have. My brother is a huge fan of theirs and I checked them out. I like a fair number of their covers but do not care much for their original songs. Secondly, you assumed that I referring to their entire catalogue of music when I mentioned the scream vocals when the comments before "As a Band" was strictly for this particular song. As far as Mayu's over all vocals, she is talented but her standard vocals are too high pitched for my personal preference. And I do not care for the scream vocals she does in this particular song either. Its no knock against her skill but more a statement that, while she is very talented, she is not someone I enjoy listening to. Overall, as a band, they are very talented but I prefer Hazuki in Li-sa-X Band and Saiki in Mary's Blood. All that being said, they do not hit the top 10 for J-Rock / J-Metal bands for me.
@@1947dd whatever
@@Russ.Murphy Sorry saying they are all talented and skilled, but they are not to my personal taste in music seems to have bothered you. *shrug*
They have some great songs and even a live concert you can watch but don't ignore their covers because they are all good. They also do a couple of fun songs Make you happy and The banana song. The guitarist right of screen is from Mary's Blood and that's another great band. She hosts a female only guitar festival every year and is a bit of a celebrity and that's probably why people recognised NEMOPHILA so quickly. Please react to more NEMOPHILA.
Guitarist SAKI is Kanami friend. 👍
Oh and she is 2 band guitarist ( Mary’s Blood )
That’s all I know Champ.
She also plays in 2 more acts part time, Amahiru, and her solo act which is dropping her own CD.
Wait they’re friends? If you don’t mind, could you please link me to the source.
Both of them are among my fav musicians, with Saki near the top as a guitarist and Kanami being top 3 fav songwriters of all times.
I’ve researched extensively esp. on Kanami but never found out that they actually knew each other.
Mayu's voice is harsher than Saiki's, even before her surgery, but Mayu has a higher pitch voice. She reminds me of a very angry kitten looking for a fight on my rooftop.
I got the same vibes from this band than from B-M itself on every aspect: creativity, tastiness, fun while playing, genre mixing, versatility, etc. I think they will be legends in a world dominated by pigeons.
They have a lot of good covers and a few but equally good original songs. My fav from them is Raitei.
You should also check out Hanabie-We Love Sweets. They are a Maximum The Hormone in the making with a lot of fresh and good ideas
nemophia and band-maid change my life dude. You need to react more Nemophila. My recomendations are Raitei or Life or covers like Kurenai by X Japan or Despair Billy by Maximum the hormone
Mayu...mayu...mayu...darn that scream...found my first female screamer from japan M!sa ( story of hope ) then Yuna ( Passcode ) n one more from Telec!de forgot her name ( sorry 🙏🏿) then Mayu...good lord live them all n hope they can take care of their throat...check out Hanabie as well Champ...tq for the reaction
You havn't met the Queen of screams then...Yu From Mergingmoon.
Telecide lead singer was Aki. Unfortunately a very common name. But this is her Twitter.
mobile.twitter.com/aki_mou_i?lang=en
Great reaction! Keep it up..... Nemophila is awesome. Support these girls and keep spreading the word. Please reaction to Nemophila, Life (Live), Mayu's range and rasp is amazing in this song.
We knew you would like them.
A little over 2 weeks to go until the release of Oiran - Extended Edition, and it's going to have an English version of this song. Can't wait!!!
Pronounced ne-MOFF-fill-a, accent on the second syllable. It's a plant with a blue flower. You can look it up in the dictionary.
This lot always put me in mind (at least with this track) of Filipino rock outfit SLAPSHOCK, and the material on the "Carino Brutal" album.. It's always a delight to hear your refreshingly honest opinions and takes on all this stuff you react to man.. I need to hear more from them, never mind you recommending more! lol
I wont bore you with info every one has filled you in on the band i must be late to the party (uk) Welcome to Nemophila these lady's are on a role formed to support the singer at some live gigs and hit it off big time now poised to take over the world of metal /rock .It wont be long till there pulling fans like BM .There all super nice and interact with fans .7 song (collection of there singles )CD available from JPU records UK online concert 19th of this month and there working hard on a album You wont go wrong with any of there songs .
Two more bassists to show your bassist would be Rio of Mary’s Blood and F Chopper Koga of Gacharic Spin and Doll$Boxx.
Check out N's cover of The Trooper. Mayu's vocals really shine on this one.
I’m really into this song right now! Lol
You called it and didn't even know it...Hazuki-san, the first solo-ist...huge Children of Bodom fan....lol And Saki-san...is Saki-san....if you've done any Mary's Blood you already know who she is...;) Mayu-san, her singing is in its own class... If you dive into their discog, there's al most nothing she can't sing...🤘💪 In that sense she reminds me of NANA that fronts Fate Gear most of the time... but their voices are completely different...and they both have tthat ability... I love it. And they have fun doing it too! Oddly I followed all of them separately before they got together with the exception of Haraguchi-san (bs), which I am now! Found them originally via Tamu-san (dr)...used to watch her streams like someone else below...😊🤘
Here's a full interview from them: unijolt.com/nemophila-interview-2021/
you should check their other song called Life its an extremely emotional sounding ballad
Nemophila monsters is really good
Please do nemophila reaction again next time
Just found these ladies days ago. Omg so good. You should check out Trident. I would classify them as Korean punk rock. Gives me that old punk rock days vibes from the early 2000s.
Hey Champ. This vocalist has a sound that reminds me of someone else I discovered recently. Skye from Sumo Cyco. Not an all female band, just the vocalist, but some very cool stuff. For a first song I recommend No Surrender or Danger.
Great react vids dude! Thanks
You ask, where these girls been? at least their guitarist Saki has been shedding for a long time with her main band, Mary's Blood: th-cam.com/video/p6ipfYbJgXQ/w-d-xo.html and other projects like Shred Racers: th-cam.com/video/GfMf9FszjAU/w-d-xo.html & th-cam.com/video/YL1glLgYW8s/w-d-xo.html
Now you are ready for Hanabie - We Like Sweets
Bodom yes, also like Manso screech or sometimes Brink - and Champ, besides the occasional sprinkled girly J-rock🙄between drums and guitars they are a killer "Metal" band! Megadeth meets All That Remains 🧠🔥
I love that no matter who you are keying in on, you are gonna see a woman being absolutely beastly with her instrument. No one in this band is just along for the ride as any of then could be the standout in a band.
Great reaction as usual! P.S., Poppy just dropped a 5-song EP on her TH-cam channel with her own genre-bending. The song "Breeders," especially, is...an experience.
EDIT: Whoops, got my song titles mixed up. "Breeders" is the hooky one, but it's "Say Cheese" that makes you go "WTF JUST HAPPENED?!"
In the studio, they're so chill. This was a tiny bit screamy for me. - But lots of therir other songs are right up my street. 雷霆 -Raitei is really good. They also cover a few old metal classics, such as Aces High, which, NGL I prefer over the original. Another great Japanese band knocks spots of their western counterparts... and they all seem so humble too. - These ladies ROCK.
Please also check out 'Sorai', 'Monsters', 'Life' and 'Raitei'
You don’t see it too much in this video. But these girls are having so much fun when they play. Watch Oiran just to see Haraguchi-San (Bass) either laughing or really trying not to through the entire song.
Awesome Band, my Favourite at the moment and awesome reaction.
Maybe check out Hanabie - We love Sweets as well. More girls that rock.
finally!
Ok, discovered your channel due to me loving NEMOPHILA, and I have to say, I really like how you edit your video, your voice and the kinky remarks. Nicely done, so subbed and liked.
Oh wait... you also do some BTS... unsubbed... (joking, while I don't like them, I totally respect your work and choices, and honnestly it's very cool that you go out of your own musical garden, music is a journey with a lot of diversity)
Yeah her vocals is what got me into that band. She nailed an Iron Maiden cover (which honnestly I never thought could happen, me beeing a huge fan of Maiden and of the vocals of Bruce Dickinson)
Now if you are after some other Japanese hard rock band (all girls), there is a one that is a little less known than the ones you covered, but yet quite talented.
BRIDEAR
While their original core has changed a lot (only the guitar bass Haru, and the vocalist Kimi, are original members from 2011), they kept talent, while adapting to what happened.
Their latest MV (and song) Bloody Bride is quite nice th-cam.com/video/CN3KDIBdosQ/w-d-xo.html
If you do them in future, just never ever use one of their live recording, they are pretty bad as far as sound goes, and does not serve them well. But seeing those girls live is something (saw them twice)
Anyway, stay safe and keep on the great job, Greetings from Switzerland.
Nemophila Zen - Live is overdue for you...
All of their originals are worthy of reactions. Some of their covers too. Raitei or Oiran would be my choices for a follow up from them.
And yes, like many have said, Hanabie - We Love Sweets is another awesome one for a reaction.
_Life_ is my first fav, (you'll love it's power! No kidding!) along with _Sorai,_ _Orain,_ _Ratei,_ and _Kurenai_ are all cracking songs too, as their Baby Metal cover _Megakitsune._
Nemophilia rarely fail to impress, they are a good counterpart to Band-Maid, albeit with a smattering of emotive thrash vocals when & where apt - like Axle's wailing screams of GnR of old.
But... one of there Iron Maiden covers seemed to suffer a levels mishap IMHO - likely first song of the day in the studio after another band had the monitor/mixing desk/eq set differently- can't be perfect all the time, and it's them rehearsing/jamming it perhaps?
their cover of maximum the hormone's zetsubou billy is really really great. lead singer does both daisuke's and ryo's vocal parts. super impressive.
Your scream is awesome😄
I love these Japanese bands because the women are not only "nice accessories" but more important constituent, if not a driving force
this group is my fav band right now all there stuff kicks ass and you should check out song called Raitei
I encourage you to listen to more of their originals ("Raitei" or "Life") AND covers(Iron Maiden, Kiss, Linkin park, ACDC) songs ;)
Mayu (the singer) is the new voice of J-metal !
This is actually Nemophila's heaviest song; most of their other songs are more old school heavy metal. If you want to hear something heavier and more modern try 花冷え。(Hanabie)「我甘党」(I love sweets)
i love her voice too. nemophila is the best female band right now 🤟🏼 ...just my opinion ✌🏼
Lovebites are better. But I respect Nemophila.
@@cepho8349 for me nemophila the best. lovebites second. for japan all female band right now, i only listen to nemophila and lovebites 🤟🏼
HANABIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
Champ, if you see this, Nemophila just came out with a new mv called Revive. It'll absolutely blow your mind 🤯
"I want to see if the girls are shredders".
Saki and Hazuki: "Lol, hold our beers."
They are my favorite after Band-Maid. Mayu can scream, growl and sing.
Oh, by the way, the drummer in the link is Tamu Murata, the drummer you just watched with Nemophila and obviously the guitarist in the middel is Saki....my guitar goddess.
Everyone has mentioned all the members on this band. Most famous is Saki (current member of Mary's Blood). Drummer is Tamu Murata - she started as a fusion drummer. She can play almost any genre and is one of the top females drummers in Japan. Also, she recently had a baby late last year. She has her own YT channel with combined view of over 45 million. She does a lot of covers from Jazz, Pop to Metal (channel name is in Japanese). Here is her covering OST Theme of Lupin III (8 million views) >> th-cam.com/video/_O9QPGxQDI8/w-d-xo.html (big band Jazz)
The first thought at the beginning was: "Woah sounds like Arch Enemy!"
After the second and third song, I fell in love with Nemophila.
My personal favorite is "Raitei"
